Electrical work in the Santa Clarita
Planned charging, an ADU, appliances, lighting or equipment circuits need a review of the existing supply and loads. A newer home may need repairs or rewiring, just as an older home may already have substantial upgrades; the actual condition matters. For a shared property, identify the affected units, common equipment and authorized project contact. We discuss those requirements before recommending equipment changes or a particular power-management system.
Permits and utilities here
Confirm whether the parcel is within the City of Santa Clarita or an unincorporated county area before selecting the permit process. The electricity provider and any property-association requirements should be checked separately. Permits, utility work and association review can involve different documents and schedules. We identify the relevant coordination for the proposed installation without assuming which approval will take longest.
Common questions
My panel is already 200 amp. Can I add a second EV charger?
The 200-amp rating alone does not tell us how much capacity remains. We review existing loads, the proposed chargers and their supported control features. Sharing power between chargers differs from responding to total household demand. A compatible design may help, but charging rates, permit requirements and any equipment upgrades need to be checked for your installation.

Do you handle ADU electrical in Santa Clarita?
Yes. The electrical question with an ADU is whether it is fed from the existing service or gets its own, and that depends on the load calculation, the meter arrangement and what the jurisdiction requires. Getting that decided early matters, because it affects trenching, panel location and the permit. Tell us the size of the unit and whether it will be all-electric.
